Short list of what I've seen:
1. A troll balance druid without a healer that can't be taken down. HPs go untouched. This player kills multiple players because his health bar never deviates from 100%
2. Speed hacks. Either players moving too fast or retaking flag positions in the blink of an eye. Just exactly as if enemy players weren't even there.
3. Horde players playing Alliance side so they can spam our chat channels and make strategy discussions difficult. I've seen lots of Alliance bashing from supposed Alliance players. And I've also seen where some players just spam the chat box so that all you can see are twenty lines of the exact same text.
I'd actually say it takes a modicum of skill to win a BG in a fair way. But if one cheats, there is not only no honor in it, but I can't believe there is any joy in winning anything that way. It just reduces the game to a point of triviality as to become utterly stupid.
What is the processes to remove a cheating player from a BG? Why can't Blizzard detect obvious things like twenty lines of identical text and just auto-boot that kind of chat spammer as probably being on the other side?
This is Warcraft.
If you are going to allow the BGs to become chaos because of botters and cheaters. Well, there's a problem with that business model...
